Hi Phillip,

I have followed up your enquiry re the bulkhead on Tri Gear Europas with
Roger Bull at the factory.  It would seem there has been a bit of lack 
of
joined up action.


You are quite right to notice the issue of the instruction in the Europa
Aircraft News.  At the time it was issued as a structural requirement 
for
Tri Gears only.  Subsequent analysis by Barry Mellors at the then PFA 
now
LAA has shown that this bulkhead is not necessary.  This is why it never
appeared in the manual.  Unfortunately the factory failed to issue any
notice to this effect and hence your query.


I hope this helps

This was mentioned in the Tech Talk part of 'Europa Aircraft News' from 
Dec.
1999 (Issue No.24). Has still not been added to the manual as far as I 
can
see.
I built it in before bonding in the Cockpit Module (tricky to do after
bonding I think...), i.e. it should probably be part of Ch.17. I first
measured the actual sizes that would be needed then cut and trimed (the 
ply)
to fit 'exactly'.
Have attached a photo of the page (can send the original to anyone who
wants/needs it).

Regards,

I have found one drawing of the front bulkhead that shows two pieces cut 
to
260 x 260x3mm, but my opening is larger and I can't find what chapter it
addresses this bulkhead.
